On the Difficulties of Escape in Ancient Times

Now Li Zheng only has Xiao Xiao in his eyes.

When he saw her, he leaned over to her and expressed his loyalty angrily: "Our entire Xutian Village relies on the third girl to survive. We must not be ungrateful. We are at the mercy of the third girl."

Everyone on the side responded loudly: "Yes!"

Li Zheng added: "We can't take your money either."

It's just that when I said this, my body seemed a little weak.

Even the people around him were a little out of breath: "Yes!"

Xiao Xiao thinks this is understandable. Ten taels of silver is the amount of money that an ordinary family of five may not be able to save in half a year's income, or even in one year, excluding chewing.

If she didn't get that windfall that would make her generous, she wouldn't be able to be generous.

But after she got so much gold and silver, she originally planned to share some with the villagers.

She took a cursory look and heard Shunzi coming over to mutter that there was one person from each family, and in some cases, both father and son were joining the battle.

The main reason is that people nowadays believe that having more children means more blessings.

Therefore, it is normal for most families to have two or three sons, and some families have five sons.

Even Xu Laosan's family, maybe because they had offended the Xiao family before, Xu Laosan and his eldest son also came.

He and his father also came to Shunzi's house.

At the thought of getting ten taels of silver for free, everyone who was originally frightened to the point of weakness and panic, and everyone slumped on the couch instantly felt as if they had been given a shot of chicken blood, and became a hundred times more energetic.

What if his two younger brothers weren't still young and wanted to have another one?

Even those feverish men struggled to remember and shouted: I can do it, I'm fine, I want to go.

As for personal safety, they are not too worried.

How could Xiao Xiao lead everyone to destroy more than 20 rebels before?
Now that everyone has experience, they are just dealing with more than 20 rebels. Everyone's heart is swollen, and they all feel that killing someone while they are sleeping is a big deal... At worst, they can lie down and rest for a few days after they come back.

Anyway, it’s winter now, so it’s time to gain weight.

Besides, Shunzi also said that they also have guards who are skilled in martial arts. If they cooperate with others, the security will be higher.

So no one was afraid.

Xiao Xiao seemed to be moved by everyone and said loudly: "Thank you very much, but I must give you the money I promised you before."

"That's what Mr. Jiang said. Is it the hard work he insists on giving us?"

Holly was stunned.

who is he? Where is he? Why didn't he know that his old man had said such a thing?
Xiao Erlang was very used to his third sister, and she could tell lies as if they were true.

When he saw Dongqing opening his mouth to speak, he quickly covered his mouth, pulled him back a few steps, and whispered: "If you want to save your old lady and the others, don't say anything."

Xiao Xiao quickly walked around and picked out Li Zheng and an uncle who was blushing and looked like he was drunk.

She didn't know whether it was because she was frightened or because she was suffering from cold. She was so frightened that she still wanted to fight against the rebels despite being burned like this.

After Li Zheng was sure that he couldn't go, he looked regretful and aggrieved. In the end, he could only tell his son to obey Xiao Xiao's command.

According to what Dongqing said before, it was about ten miles away from Xutian Village. They were afraid that there were rebels at the back house, so they planned to go around the field path and get closer. The common people were used to walking at night. In order not to be noticed, they didn't even use torches and could walk quickly under the bright moonlight.

The Xiao family lived in a reservoir when they were young. They walked at night, went out to catch eels when it was dark, and caught fireflies.

The only thing holding him back turned out to be Holly.

Although he is a young man, he has no worries about food and drink, he can read and know how to separate and pack medicinal materials, but he really doesn't come out and walk quickly in the middle of the night.

The field ridges were definitely not flat, so Holly tripped and fell several times on the bumpy soil. Fortunately, there were fields on both sides, so a few falls would not hurt his muscles and bones, and make him grimace in pain.

They hurried slowly and hurriedly. When they almost reached the place, they saw people not far ahead, drinking and eating meat around the fire, and even punching there, not to mention how carefree they were.

Xiao Xiao sniffed. It was not a good thing to have a sensitive sense of smell at this time. She smelled the aroma of meat and wondered if she would eat something after the beating.

Dongqing came to Xiao Xiao's side excitedly, pointed to the courtyard in front, and whispered: "My old lady and the others are inside. There are five rooms and a large courtyard."

He looked inside worriedly: "How should we save people now?"

"Don't worry, I'll take a walk first and take a look."

When it comes to his own life, Xiao Xiao is still very cautious: "You all should be careful and don't make any noise for them to discover."

Then she lurked and walked around quietly, and she was glad that she was cautious, because there were people guarding her in the dark, and they didn't let up at all.

And she quietly counted, there were thirty-six people on the other side.

This number frightened her a little. She wanted to ask Dongqing who taught her mathematics? Are twenty-odd people and thirty-odd people the same?

Did he think it was a big opening bonus or a big price reduction during a promotion?

Is this blatant fraud?
And I don’t know what’s going on inside now?
She had teamed up with Butler Hou and others to intercept and kill people before, so she knew that they were quite skilled.
And the look of people on the outside looking wary shows that the people inside are still capable of fighting.

Only then can they be wary and cautious and not attack forcefully.

Xiao Xiao complained in his heart: The co-authors are all life-loving masters. They all want to use psychological tactics to defeat the enemy without fighting. They want to make the other party afraid, so that if they attack again, it will be much smoother.

She thought for a while, then returned to where she was, and asked Dongqing in a low voice: "How many people are there? How many people can be beaten?"

Holly lowered her head and remained silent.

Xiao Xiao wanted to beat him. At this critical moment, was silence golden for him?
She just wanted to beat him until stars appeared in his eyes.

She took a deep breath, suppressed her temper, and asked again: "How many people in there are as skilled as Butler Hou?"

Dongqing whispered: "Three girls, am I counting?"

Afraid that Xiao Xiao would misunderstand that he was being passive and sabotaging his work, Dongqing simply whispered to her: "All the family members of County Magistrate Chen are here."

"Mrs. Chen and the eldest mistress, as well as the maids and women who serve them, two aunts, two young ladies, a young master, and four guards and three carriages."

"I heard that there are several relatives from my aunt's family. There is also a mule cart."

Dongqing hesitated for a moment, then whispered: "The skills of those four guards should be similar to Butler Hou and the others, right?"

"In addition, we, the old man and his wife, as well as Butler Hou and Uncle Jin, also have two mothers, three sisters, four guards, a carriage and two mule carriages..."
